The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2026, held on April 18–19, 2026 at the University of Southern California campus, once again brought together book lovers, authors, publishers, and creatives for a vibrant celebration of literature. Known as one of the largest literary festivals in the United States, the event featured panel discussions, book signings, live performances, and countless booths filled with stories waiting to be discovered. The atmosphere was lively and inspiring, offering something for every kind of reader.
Citi of Books proudly took part in this year’s festival, connecting with attendees from all walks of life. Their booth became a welcoming space where visitors explored a diverse collection of titles and learned more about the company’s publishing and marketing services. Throughout the two-day event, the team engaged in meaningful conversations with aspiring authors, avid readers, and fellow industry professionals, making the experience both productive and memorable.
The participation of Citi of Books in LATFOB 2026 was a valuable opportunity to showcase their growing catalog and strengthen their presence in the global book community. Being surrounded by passionate storytellers and curious readers allowed the team to gain fresh insights into current literary trends while building new relationships. The energy of the festival reflected the shared love for storytelling, reinforcing Citi of Books’ commitment to helping authors bring their work to a wider audience.
Attending book events like the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books continues to play an important role in connecting stories with readers. It opens doors for collaboration, discovery, and inspiration that go beyond the pages of a book. As Citi of Books carries this momentum forward, readers are invited to explore featured titles in their Book Gallery, including “Molly” by Craig E. Day.
There’s something exciting about seeing a story come to life on a global stage, and that’s exactly what happened at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2026. At the Citi of Books gallery, “Molly” by Craig E. Day drew in curious readers looking for something dark, gripping, and impossible to put down. From the moment attendees caught a glimpse of its premise, it was clear this wasn’t your typical legal drama.
Molly follows a driven young lawyer who seems to have it all mapped out until her path takes a chilling turn. What begins as ambition slowly twists into something far more unsettling, pulling her into a world of vengeance, disturbing secrets, and eerie encounters. Add in the mystery of a haunted home and messages from a murdered child, and you get a psychological thriller that keeps readers guessing at every turn. It’s intense, bold, and just the kind of story that lingers long after the final page.
We were thrilled to showcase this standout title at LATFOB 2026, where stories like this find their perfect audience. Events like this remind us how powerful storytelling can be, especially when it dares to explore the darker corners of human nature. If you’re drawn to thrillers that push boundaries and keep your mind racing, “Molly” by Craig E. Day is one to add to your list.
